Letter from the Chairman As the State of New Jersey addresses the economic challenges facing our government and its citizenry, the role of the South Jersey Transportation Authority as a key driver of economic growth and activity in southern New Jersey is more important than ever. In 2008, the SJTA focused its attention on maximizing the potential of the Atlantic City International Airport and the Atlantic City Expressway by investing in services, upgrades and safety features. One of the highlights of the year was a cooperative agreement between the SJTA and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Transportation Security Laboratory to establish our airport as a test site for emerging security technologies. We are proud to play such a key role in the development of safety innovations for America’s airports. As 2008 closed, the SJTA was putting the finishing touches on its largest ever capital plan for improving and expanding the capacity of the Atlantic City Expressway and the Atlantic City International Airport. These visionary infrastructure investments will create jobs and position New Jersey and the southern New Jersey region for the economy’s recovery and for future growth. Governor Corzine and I applaud the SJTA for its commitment to keeping the region working and moving forward.

SOUTH JERSEY TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY CORE FUNCTIONS Atlantic City Expressway Millions of motorists annually enjoy safe and efficient travel along the 47-mile long Atlantic City Expressway throughout southern New Jersey and to Atlantic City. In use since 1964, the Expressway provides convenient access from Atlantic City and travels northwest through Atlantic, Gloucester and Camden counties, intersecting with the Garden State Parkway and ending at Route 42 approximately ten miles east of Philadelphia. E-ZPass is accepted at tolls along the Expressway, and Emergency Service Patrol vehicles are available along the roadway as a courtesy for motorists. Atlantic City International Airport Offering access to air travel in support of commerce, tourism and the general public in southern New Jersey, the Atlantic City International Airport brings travelers to Atlantic City and the southern New Jersey region and outbound air passengers to markets served by its carriers. Located on 2,200 acres of land in Egg Harbor Township, the airport is located nine miles northwest of downtown Atlantic City off of Exit 9 of the Atlantic City Expressway. While currently undergoing expansion and upgrades, the airport has 7 gates to serve nearly one million passengers annually. Transportation Services As part of its mission to stimulate the economy of southern New Jersey, the SJTA provides a host of transportation services that serve to increase employment opportunities in areas underserved by transit. SJTA’s Transportation Services Department operates and manages the Authority’s parking facilities and parking shuttles throughout the region and promulgates and enforces the rules and regulations guiding the motorbus industry in Atlantic County. Economic Development The South Jersey Transportation Authority is charged with economic stimulation and growth through the implementation of transportation and infrastructure projects and services that support job creation and economic growth in the six counties it serves including Atlantic, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester and Salem. SJTA economic development activities support the six priority areas of growth as outlined in the Economic Growth Strategy for the State of New Jersey. 6 You're viewing an archived copy from the New Jersey State Library. Letter from the Executive Director We at the South Jersey Transportation Authority have truly lived our vision in 2008 by leading the charge for transportation and infrastructure improvements in southern New Jersey. The Atlantic City Expressway experienced a new record of nearly 67 million vehicles in 2008 generating $63.5 million in toll revenues for the year, up $1.67 million from 2007. Despite the economic challenges faced by Atlantic City and the region, the Expressway continues to provide direct and safe access to the resort destination and businesses throughout southern New Jersey. While a toll increase in mid-November contributed to the increase in revenues, its real impact will be the funding of regional transportation projects in 2009 and beyond. Our belief that Atlantic City International Airport is a major economic force in southern New Jersey was immortalized in 2008 by the results of an economic impact study conducted for the SJTA. The total economic impact of the airport is an impressive $464 million annually derived from capital investments, aviation operations and visitor spending. As remarkable are the more than 10,700 jobs that have been created from all of the aviation-related activities on the airport property. SJTA investments in a new 1,370 parking garage, apron expansion, interior upgrades and new amenities are major steps towards maximizing the airport’s potential. That potential has been the focus of a coalition formed by Atlantic City’s stakeholders to attract new airlines and air service to the Atlantic City International Airport. Spirit Airlines was the first to demonstrate its belief in the region by announcing new Boston-Atlantic City service to begin May 1, 2009. What a year it’s been for the South Jersey Transportation Authority. Thanks must go to Governor Jon Corzine, our past Chairman Kris Kolluri, new Chairman Stephen Dilts, and SJTA Board of Commissioners for their support. Thanks to SJTA staff for living the vision! Bart R. Mueller Executive Director South Jersey Transportation Authority 7 You're viewing an archived copy from the New Jersey State Library. The Mission of the South Jersey Transportation Authority is to provide the traveling public with safe and efficient transportation through the acquisition, construction, maintenance, operation and support of expressway, airport, transit, parking, other transportation projects and services that support the economies of Atlantic, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester and Salem Counties. Safety Safety is the driving force behind the everyday work environment at the SJTA. Monthly safety training for all employees spans the universe of safety practices from the roadway to the office. All departments within the Authority are fully compliant with safety training mandates. Innovation Advancing transportation in southern New Jersey requires keeping abreast of new and emerging technologies and analyzing how they can positively impact the SJTA and the traveling public. In 2008, the SJTA began developing a plan to upgrade the electronic toll collection system along the Atlantic City Expressway. The system is intended to assist the Authority in improving traffic flow and operating efficiencies. The upgraded system will allow traffic to move through the toll plazas without stopping, therefore reducing traffic congestion and the carbon footprint. Professionalism The SJTA continually seeks out opportunities to upgrade its fiscal and professional practices. Technology is increasingly being employed to provide transparency and day-to-day management of critical information. The Authority’s new capital project management system is in place, providing efficiencies in scheduling and cost tracking as well as real-time access to project status. In 2008, the SJTA was the catalyst behind the formation of a coalition of executive-level and community stakeholders in Atlantic City to focus on the attraction and development of air service and economic development opportunities for southern New Jersey. By making the region more accessible by air to a broader swath of the
